Capo : fret 5
BmEm
my lover's got humour
BmEm
she's the giggle at a funeral
DEm
knows everybody's disapproval
BmEm
I should've worshipped her sooner
BmEm
if the heavens ever did speak
BmEm
she is the last true mouth piece
DEm
every sunday's getting more bleak
BmEm
a fresh poison each week
A
we were born sick,
G
you heard them say it..
BmEm
my church offers no absolutes
BmEm
she tells me 'worship in the bedroom
DEm
the only heaven I'll be sent to
BmEm
is when I'm alone with you
AG
I was born sick, but I love
G
command me to be well..
DGD
a.. a..men..
GDGmDD-C#
a..men.. a..men..
(Chorus)
C# -CBm
take me to church
I'll worship like a dog
F#
at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins
D
and you can sharpen your knife
Em
offer me that deathless death
BmD-C#
good God, let me give you my life..
C# -CBm
take me to church
I'll worship like a dog
F#
at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins
D
and you can sharpen your knife
Em
offer me that deathless death
BmD-C#C#-C
good God, let me give you my life..
BmEm
if I'm a pagan of the good times
BmEm
my lover's the sunlight
DEm
to keep the Goddess on my side
BmEm
she demands a sacrifice
A
to drain the whole sea
G
get something shiny
BmEm
something meaty for the main course
BmEm
that's a fine looking high horse
DEm
what you got in the stable..
BmEm
we've a lot of starving faithful
AG
that looks tasty, that looks plenty
G
this is hungry work..
(Chorus)
C# -CBm
take me to church
I'll worship like a dog
F#
at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins
D
and you can sharpen your knife
Em
offer me that deathless death
BmD-C#
good God, let me give you my life..
C# -CBm
take me to church
I'll worship like a dog
F#
at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins
D
and you can sharpen your knife
Em
offer me that deathless death
BmD-C#C#-C
good God, let me give you my life..
GD
no masters or kings..
F#D
when the ritual begins..
GD
there is no sweeter innocence
F#D
than our gentle sin..
GD
in the madness and soil
F#D
of that sad, earthly scene..
GD
only then I am human..
F#BmAGD
only then I am clean.. ooh.. ooh..
G -DGmDGmDD-C#
a..men.. a..men.. a..men..
